The Rancher Academy launched on May 15, 2020. Here we are, 94 days later, and we’ve issued our 1,000th certificate to a graduate of the Certified Rancher Operator: Level 1 course. Rancher is open source software, so anyone can download it and use it. With that freedom, though, comes a cost: we all learn how to use it according to how we need to use it. Through this lens, the actual potential of Rancher becomes distorted, and the experience of each individual varies widely.

The standard Command Line Interface for Kubernetes (kubectl) is a very powerful tool for debugging or monitoring purposes.

Developers understand the importance of keeping their team up to date on work and use many of the integrations between Bitbucket Cloud and Jira like smart commits and automation triggers to do so automatically. However there may be times where there are nuances or uncommon situations when merging a pull request that aren't covered by existing automation rules – sometimes there are multiple pull requests, or sometimes merging means you're now in 'Done' and other times you're in 'Releasing'.
